If it weren't for their strikingly similar features, signaling that they were siblings, others would surely assume there was something going on between them."Enough! We have a guest!" Lamar said. It was only then the girl realized another man was standing beside Lamar. She stuck out her tongue at Lamar before directing her attention to Adrian. Upon seeing him, her expression shifted to one of disappointment as if something she had been eagerly anticipating did not meet her expectations."He’s the one who saved you, Lamar?" the girl asked in disbelief. The girl before Adrian was Lamar's sister, Pamela Weber. Lamar had mentioned that Pamela had a great admiration for strong people and was eagerly awaiting Adrian's arrival. However, it seemed to Adrian that Pamela was rather disappointed when she saw him. After all, Adrian looked frail and delicate, not at all like someone who could defeat those from the Sherman family."Mind your words, Pamela!" Lamar scolded, "If it weren't for
"Okay, thank you." Adrian nodded, grateful to have a place to stay. Moreover, the Webers were fairly well off, and their house was much better than those of ordinary families. Adrian saw no need to ask for anything more."Mr. Adrian, it wasn’t easy for me to get back here alive. I believe my father has been worried for a long time, so I need to report to him. You rest for now. If you need anything, just ask the servants or find Pam," Lamar said."My room isn't far from yours. If you need anything, just shout my name," Pamela added.“Okay."The siblings exited the room. Once they were gone, Adrian carefully inspected the room's furnishings. It was decorated with antique bronze wood furniture adorned with intricate patterns. The furnishings were simple yet they exude an air of grandeur. It was evident that the Webers were wealthy.A sarcastic voice rang out from behind Adrian while he was admiring the room. "You’re the guest Lamar brought back?"Turning around, Adrian saw a young
Before Rudolph could finish his sentence, Adrian punched him in the face.Rudolph’s face swelled up as blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. Adrian had no intention of confronting Rudolf since the latter was weak. However, Rudolph’s words were too disrespectful and infuriating. Even someone as patient as Adrian could not tolerate being insulted. Since Rudolf refused to back down, he might as well teach him a lesson.Besides, he would not have ended up here if he hadn’t saved Lamar. Even if Lamar blamed him, Adrian would not regret his actions.*"So, you're saying this young man saved you from the Shermans?" Frosch seemed skeptical as he listened to Lamar's report."Yes, Father. He's now resting in the guest room. I can bring him here so you can meet him," Lamar replied respectfully.Suddenly, a panicked voice came from outside the room. "Mr. Frosch! Something bad happened!"Frosch Weber raised his head and saw a servant rushing into the room."What's the matter?""Mr. R
"Are you planning to attack me?" Adrian asked coldly.Although the group were terrified by Adrian's swift victory over Rudolf, they were Rudolf's subordinates and dared not retreat without his command."Do you guys want to die that badly?" Adrian asked again. He took a step forward, and simultaneously, a surge of power emanated from him. Even though he did not fully unleash it, his energy was still strong enough to make everyone in the vicinity cower in fear."What's going on here?"A sharp voice interrupted the standoff. At the same time, a powerful pressure descended upon them and Adrian felt a chill down his spine. Following the direction of the voice, he saw a figure slowly coming toward them. As the man approached the group, the oppressive aura emanating from him became palpable, announcing him as an extremely formidable person.Frosch had an imposing demeanor, and his presence made it difficult for those around him to breathe. However, Adrian did not appear too intimidated.
“What?!" Rudolf was shocked. His eyes widened, and his mouth hung open in disbelief. "Mr. Frosch…"Frosch interrupted Rudolph with a slap. The dumbfounded Rudolph stood frozen, a cupped hand over his cheek.Meanwhile, Adrian looked at the unfolding situation before him with interest.Frosch reprimanded Rudolph coldly, "Do you think I'm a fool? I know what happened. You were the one who started the trouble first, so why are you playing the victim and falsely accusing him? Have you no shame?!" Rudolf was initially stunned, but he soon was overwhelmed by his rage. He had not expected Frosch to take on Adrian's side, but there was nothing he could do. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Fine, fine! Just you wait, Adrian! I'll remember this! Hmph!"With that, Rudolph turned and slunk away. It was not until he had disappeared that Adrian breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he did not want the conflict to escalate. Even if he was capable of taking them all on his own, he knew it was better
However, Adrian refused to accept the crystals. "But this is our token of gratitude," Lamar and Frosch insisted. Adrian calmly said, "It's okay. If you truly want to thank me, then do me a favor.""Whatever you need," Lamar replied. Adrian then briefly explained his reason for coming here and also told them about the separation from his companions. He added, "I hope you can help me find my friends.""That's a small matter!" Frosch chuckled.The Webers were considered a big family in the Dragon Domain, so finding a few people would be easy."You can count on us for this matter, Mr. Adrian!" Lamar affirmed."I'll leave it to you then," Adrian said."No problem. You've done us a huge favor. It's only right for us to do something for you."Everyone chimed in agreement.Adrian stayed at the Weber residence. Since he had nothing to do, he got some information from the Webers to understand more about the Dragon Domain. He learned from the Webers' records that the Dragon Domain h
Frosch sighed. "The three families have been competing with each other for a long time. Initially, my family was slightly stronger than the others but because they obtained the power of the Evil Dragons, their strength caught up and is now almost on par with ours.""I see,” Adrian said thoughtfully.Lamar piped up, "Don't worry, Mr. Adrian. This matter concerns you as much as it concerns us. Since we've encountered it, we can't just stand idly by. After all, it also affects our safety too. It's just that…""Just what?""They already possess some of the power of the Nine Dragon Spirits. It poses a certain threat to us, so I hope you can help us out," Lamar said earnestly. "No problem. Just tell me what you want me to do," Adrian said. "We need you to help us create a weapon.” Lamar then proceeded to tell Adrian about the weapon.After listening to Lamar, Adrian's eyes lit up. According to Lamar’s description, the ancestors of the family had left behind a weapon crafting manual.
It seemed like nobody trusted Russell. "Hmph, it appears that your ambition is limited. We're now in a precarious situation. If we don't join forces, we may very well be destroyed by the enemy!" Russell said seriously. After pondering for a moment, the people from the Shermans finally made a decision."Okay, let’s work together."Truth be told, all of them were powerful in their own right. If they worked together, their power would increase. As soon as they reached an agreement, they launched another attack on the Webers.*A scout came to report to Frosch. "Mr. Frosch! Monsters are attacking us!”"Monsters? Everyone, prepare for battle!" Frosch ordered.Besides the three families, there were also many monsters in this area. Although they were not commonly seen, these monsters were quite troublesome. But nobody expected the monsters to attack them now. Frosch had no other choice but to order everyone to defend. "Mr. Frosch, where do these monsters come from?" Adrian asked.
